In fact, Qin Xiaotian’s palm was false. The intention behind this palm was self-evident for he wanted to force Lei Yue to step back.
To seek revenge for Lei Ming, Lei Yue was almost crazy. As he was pushed by Qin Xiaotian’s power abruptly, he felt as though he was inside a boundless sea for his entire body was entangled by a strangely powerful whirlpool and he was unable to move forward or step back.
Xin Tianwen was quick at judging the situation. As he dashed, he flung his sleeve to knock against Qin Xiaotian’s whirlpool like sweeping away flowing clouds.
Lei Yue sent his body forward as he snuck through a little crack between the two air streams. When he looked again, Qin Wushuang had already fled far away and only an almost invisible black dot remained.
With Lei Yue’s strength, being at the Transformation Supreme Dao Stage, he knew that Qin Wushuang was already too far away.
Qin Xiaotian felt more confident and at ease. Single-handedly, he gestured his hand randomly and a powerfully imposing giant dragon spurted out. It wriggled in the sky and rolled at Xin Tianwen.
He chanted, “Xin Tianwen, today you have more people, so I will wait for you at the Aspiring Throne Mountain! One-on-one, I will fight you anytime. I will not entertain this group braul.”
After he had finished, he gave a long whistle and shot far away with the speed of a ghost. The bursting long whistle sounded continuously like a tidal wave.
“Between the Xin Clan and Qin Clan, whoever steps out forcefully and threatens the foundation of the Qin, I, Qin Xiaotian, will personally destroy you and your sect. These are not words to be tested!”
An intimidating threat was the effect Qin Xiaotian had wanted.
Qin Xiaotian also knew the arduous political outlook, yet he always maintained a domineering attitude. Combined with the tens and thousands of years of inheritance and legacy of the Qin Clan, one would not dare to look down at them. His words were enough to enforce an intimidating effect.
Indeed, Qin Xiaotian’s final words had caused those neutral powerhouses to be overwhelmed with emotion. All had secretly decided to not get dragged into this mess by the Xin Clan.
Appearing expressionless, Xin Tianwen’s body burst open with divine light. Like a celestial god, he stood straight at the highest altitude to glare at Qin Xiaotian’s far away figure coldly.
Inwardly, he felt frustrated. Xin Tianwen had thought that after having broken through the nine calamities of the Transformation Supreme Dao Stage, he could sweep the Qin Clan by upgrading to the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage.
Unexpectedly, having not seen him for hundreds of years, Qin Xiaotian had also broken the nine calamities! He also possessed the strength of the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage!
This Qin Clan was indeed like a cockroach that couldn’t be killed. Even at their lowest point, they exhibited such powerful vitality.
If he were to wait for the Qin Clan to become stronger, how could there be a place for the Xin Clan to stay at the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gate?
“Your majesty, your majesty!”
Everyone surrounded him and crawled beneath the feet of Xin Tianwen.
“Please hold fair justice for the Sound of Thunder Sect.” Lei Yue gritted his teeth in anger and his eyes were filled with murderous intentions. At this moment, his hatred towards the Qin Clan had penetrated deep inside his bones.
To any sect, the death of a Supreme Dao elite warrior was a huge strike and a loss that was deeply unforgettable!
“Go back to the divine palace at once,” Xin Tianwen waved his hand and ordered with a stern expression.
When he returned to the Heavenly Emperor divine palace, Xin Tianwen had never eliminated his aura as Heavenly Emperor. Instead, it appeared to be even stronger. Those neutral sects were also anxious and frightened. Besides the Yun Clan that were rather calm, the other sects were worried about personal gains and losses for they were worried that the Xin Clan would forcefully invite them to the game.
In the beginning, they were determined to not get involved. However, when facing the strong pressure from the Heavenly Emperor, they were afraid to lose their stance.
Once they were involved in this quarrel, it would be okay if they were able to annihilate the Qin Clan. However, in a situation where the Qin Clan survives and has the time to build strength, their days of peace would be over.
Qin Xiaotian’s final words before his departure were clearly not empty words that were powerless to frighten them. Besides the Yun Clan, none of the elite warriors from the three neutral sects had the capital or capability to fight the Heavenly Emperor.
Like a sharp knife, Xin Tianwen scraped across the faces of the crowd with the cutting edge.
“Everyone has seen with their own eyes the rebellious Qin Clan. For the outlook of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, it could collapse or get beaten down. Everyone belonging to the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates, you have shared the best territory and enjoyed the best resources. This moment is the time in which your strength is needed. Whoever dare to neglect this call will be cut short from the Heavenly Emperor Mountain!”
Such an ultimatum. The implied meaning was clear, would you dare not go? If not, you would be disobeying and cut short from the Heavenly Emperor Mountain.
As soon as Xin Tianwen asked these words, besides the Yun Clan, the complexion of the other three major neutral sects had dimmed and their hearts seemed to sink.
With a pair of stern eyes, Xin Tianwen glared at Yun Xuechen of the Yun Clan and asked with an indifferent voice, “Chief Xuechen, does the Yun Clan truly want to put your own safety before the matter of the principal?”
Yun Xuechen still appeared to be calm and collected. Although the pressure from the Heavenly Emperor made him feel incredibly uncomfortable, he clearly knew that now was not the time to state his stance.
“Your majesty, for the rights and wrongs of it, both parties only share a partial story. I cannot make a clear judgment. Under such a situation, if you are to involve the Yun Clan, it would be violating the objective of the Yun Clan. Your majesty, if it were a punitive expedition to the foreign lands with just cause, the Yun Clan would be at your side. For such a battle without a just cause, before getting to know the details of the matter, the Yun Clan does not wish to be involved. Please understand, your majesty. Still those old words, please do not push the Yun Clan onto the side of the Qin Clan.”
Yun Xuechen’s words were also sharp and penetrating for he did not step down. With the foundation of the Yun Clan, he had the qualifications to speak such words.
He also delivered his intention clearly. If the Xin Clan forced the Yun Clan to get involved, most likely the Yun Clan would join forces with the Qin Clan.
Once the Yun Clan and Qin Clan made an alliance, the consequence would be incredibly terrible.
Even the Heavenly Emperor Gate Xin Clan would not be able to bear such a situation.
Xin Tianwen felt enraged. He never thought that this Yun Xuechen had such closed ears. Despite feeling blazing rage, in the end he still suppressed it.
Letting out a cold sneer, he said, “Ok, in this case, the Yun Clan will just be bystanders. What are your plans, you lot?”
He glared at the leaders of the other three sects with cold eyes.
“Your majesty… I… The Thousand Feather Sect shares the same stance as the Yun Clan.”
“Your majesty, I am sorry, the Hundred Lane Clan could not afford for such consummation due to our low strength.”
“Your majesty…”
Xin Tianwen laughed in his situation of burning anger. “Good, good, good. It seems I, the honorable Heavenly Emperor only exists in name to you, excellent! Everyone, I hope you will not regret your choice today.”
After he finished speaking, he swung his sleeve. “Tianchen, prepare the Genuine Divine Six Weapons!”
Genuine Divine Six Weapons?
When everyone heard this, they felt apprehensive. The Genuine Divine Six Weapons were six weapons. To speak precisely, they were six Supreme Dao weapons. These six weapons could be combined or separated to form groups of attacks. They held tremendous power.
Even the totem powerhouses had to admit to the tremendous power of these Genuine Divine Six Weapons.
Using the Genuine Divine Six Weapons was enough to prove that the Heavenly Emperor Gate Xin Clan planned to be serious.
This battle had already surpassed the irremediable state. All of a sudden, the Xin Clan was going to use their greatest trump card, the Genuine Divine Six Weapons!
“For other people, prepare to gather all your elite warriors and accompany me to take an expedition to the Aspiring Throne Mountain.” Xin Tianwen swept across the entire scene with a cold gaze. “Everyone, let me say this: for this expedition, I have received the approval from the totem elite warriors. You are trying to be smart and fear the Qin Clan, yet you do not understand the situation. I hope that you will not regret this.”
Xin Tianwen let out a cackling laugh. As soon as he finished speaking these words, the Thousand Feather Sect and the other two were shaken. The totem elite warriors support the actions of the Xin Clan?
In this case, will the Qin Clan be finished?
Instantly, the leaders of these three sects became somewhat hesitant.
Yun Xuechen revealed a slight smile, “Your majesty, the Yun Clan will not stay, we will take our leave now.”
After all, the Yun Clan had their own foundation and possessed such definitive opinions. Naturally, they would not change their viewpoint due to Xin Tianwen’s word.
After some pondering, those remaining three people exchanged their gazes. Fear flashed across their eyes. In the end, the three of them reached a tacit understanding and walked before Xin Tianwen and knelt before him. “We are willing to listen to your orders!”
Xin Tianwen chuckled. “Excellent! You are able to recognize your mistakes and reform yourself, I will forget your past mistakes! For my Heavenly Emperor Gate Xin Clan, in the name of the Heavenly Emperor Gate, I order punishment for the Qin Clan. For all the followers, after we break the Qin Clan, all will have a share of the rewards!”
“Mighty Heavenly Emperor!”
“Mighty Heavenly Emperor!”
For a time, flattering words surged through the room and the other five sects had saluted and paid their respect.
“I will give you half a day before you lead your elite warriors and gather here! I will be able to see who makes the most and least contributions, by that time the rewards and punishment will be evident.”
“Go!”
As the Heavenly Emperor gave his orders, all dispersed and went to form their armies.
…
On the other hand, Qin Xiaotian had caught up to Qin Wushuang with the speed of lightning. “Nicely done, Wushuang, nice shot! For this war, you have made the first contribution!”
Now, Qin Wushuang had only just regained his senses from that impulsive action a moment ago. He revealed a bitter smile. “Head Chief, for that arrow, I was also lucky. If it were during usual times and if that Lei Ming was cautious of me, it would have been hard for me to kill him with the strength I have now.”
“Ha ha, perhaps today it’s indeed difficult for you to kill an elite warrior of the Supreme Dao Stage, but I believe that if you have the time to grow, killing a Supreme Dao warrior would certainly be as easy as cutting down grass! Let’s go, let’s return to the Aspiring Throne Mountain!”
Among the Aspiring Throne Mountain, all people at the Qin Clan wore a grave expression. They awaited anxiously for the return of the Head Chief and Qin Wushuang.
Mu Rong Xu was among them. Although she had appeared calm on the surface, the concern from her heart had overflowed unrestrained.
At this moment, suddenly Qin Yunran moved his eyebrows and laughed. “They are back, the Head Chief is back!”
Everyone immediately looked up. In the middle of the sky, two figures dropped at the Aspiring Throne Mountain with astonishing speed. As soon as Head Chief Qin Xiaotian dropped, he gave the order, “Activate all defense mechanisms!”
“Yes!”
Qin Xiaotian welcomed everyone’s ardent look and said lightly, “Everyone, prepare for battle!”
There was no extra nonsense, just these simple words immediately triggered everyone to feel that form of life and death crisis. Fight!
“Let’s fight!”
Everyone showed a determined look and there was not the slightest hesitation nor fear. Qin Chongyang said, “Everyone, let’s enter the Upright Morality Hall to discuss things further. Take responsibility and guard your posts!”
The atmosphere at the Upright Morality Hall was incredibly grave. Although everyone was prepared for a fierce battle, everyone knew that this would certainly be a tough battle and the most challenging battle in everyone’s lifetime!
